Hearing Federer's confident assurance, Li Yi became really curious. Faced with that arrogant pig head, what would Federer have to say to change the fat man's original intention in just 5 minutes?
Well, okay, Li Yi, who is not stupid, thought about it for a long time and couldn't figure out the reason. According to Li Yi, this is almost an impossible task.
So, is Federer talking nonsense? Shaking his head, Li Yi quickly rejected this idea. Although he didn't get along with Federer for too long, judging from Li Yi's understanding of him, the opponent was by no means the kind of person who was full of talk and had no clue.
There is no Lord.
Just when Li Yi was wandering around, still considering whether to put his ear to the door or even go in to hear how Federer solved the problem, Federer, who had entered less than 3 minutes before and after, had already walked out of the house.
, and said hello to Li Yi, "Lee, let's go!"
Looking at Federer with a surprised look on his face, Li Yi couldn't help but be curious, and asked in his heart like a cat scratching his head, "Federer, it's not been 3 minutes since you went in? Have you convinced that fat man now?"
Federer took the former's salute from Li Yi without being sad or unhappy. Federer just smiled and nodded, which was regarded as an answer to Li Yi's last question. Then he did not explain more about this question and changed the subject and said, "Let's go, Lee,
Today's time has already passed more than half. If you don't hurry up, you will have to stay in a hotel for a few weeks. Don't you think about me and your wallet? The hotels around here are not cheap! "
Seeing that Federer didn't want to say more about this matter, Li Yi immediately spread his hands helplessly and said, "Okay, let's go." Of course, just because Li Yi doesn't ask now doesn't mean that he is no longer curious about this matter. He
I have already made a decision in my heart. When the time comes, I must ask this question thoroughly.
After all, just a few words can make the fat man change his original intention. The content of these words is so imaginative.
…
Together with Federer, I experienced another "pleasant" afternoon. In the end, just when Li Yi's patience was about to be exhausted and he was thinking about whether to go back on his promise and accept the dormitory provided by the club, he finally found the opportunity.
A more suitable house.
Moreover, speaking of it, Li Yi did not find this house at a real estate agency. He accidentally found it from an old white woman when he and Federer asked for directions.
A small, independent house located in the center of London, relatively close to the Crystal Palace training base, no more than 20 minutes' walk away. It does not include a garden and has an indoor area of about 150 square meters. The rent is 7,000 pounds a month, with half a year's prepayment, plus
Deposit for half year's rent.
After learning that the other party was interested in renting out his house, and having seen the indoor environment, and after Li Yi expressed his satisfaction with the place, Federer gave full play to his expertise and finalized all the details with the old lady in 10 minutes.
The rest, just wait for Li Yi and the old woman to complete the transfer, and it will be OK.
Seeing that it was not too late now, Li Yi and the other three went to the nearest bank together.
Withdrawing 84,000 pounds from the bank and handing it over to the old lady, Li Yi's residence was finally settled.
Swinging two "hams" (feet), he returned to the small villa with Federer and the old woman. The old woman, very "coquettishly", immediately called the moving team and took her few
The ceremony, as well as the furniture, was removed from the house.
I originally thought that it would take some time for the other party to move, but I never thought that although the old woman was old, she was unambiguous in her work. Compared with her seriousness, she was three points better than Li Yi.
Looking at the house that had become completely empty in less than an hour, Li Yi turned to Federer and smiled and said, "Here, where should I sleep tonight??"
"Haha" Today, he laughed more than he did in the previous month. Federer was amused by Li Yi's exaggerated expression. He teased Li Yi with a smile, and then said quickly, "Lee, you leave these off-court matters to me."
Just do it, you can just stay in the hotel for one day, and I will help you clean up the place tomorrow night."
After that, perhaps because he was infected by Li Yi's sense of humor, Federer extended an index finger and said, "Of course, I will prepare the details of the bill and hand it over to you tomorrow night, Lee."
He became more and more satisfied with Federer's work efficiency, and became quite familiar with him. After hearing what the other party said, Li Yi patted the former on the shoulder, and then said with a smile, "Okay, even if you want to ask for more tips, it's no problem."
!”
…
It is night. Needless to say, how Li Yi fulfilled his bet and invited Federer to dinner. Since the British League does not have a winter break, it is still in the midst of an intense league process. Early the next morning, he had breakfast.
, Li Yi was the first to come to the Crystal Palace training base.
Well, new personnel, new atmosphere, for his new owner, Li Yi wants to leave a good impression of hard work on the other party, is that okay?
Unfortunately, what makes Li Yi extremely miserable is that since he is not well-known and has just transferred, what, does the gatekeeper of the Crystal Palace not recognize him?
Moreover, what is even more tragic is that since Li Yi did not have his own car, the hotel he was staying in was very close to the training base, so he walked there in the morning.
So what, these two items are added together. In response to Li Yi's request, the gatekeeper immediately scolded him unceremoniously, "Young man, if you want to watch the players train, OK! When the training opens tomorrow morning, you can enter by buying a ticket! But I want to
Pretending to be a player and sneaking in in front of your uncle? Not to mention the door, there are no windows! I have been looking at the gate for more than 30 years and I have never seen a player walking to work instead of driving. If you want to pretend to be a player, go buy a car first.
Let’s talk later!”
"You!" It was a bad start. Li Yi really wanted to sneer at the opponent, but think about it, he hasn't even made the team yet! What if the scandal of hitting the guard breaks out! Well, Li Yi doesn't dare to think about it anymore!
After rummaging through his cell phone, Li Yi accidentally realized that he did not have the phone number of Crystal Palace coach Friedman. He wanted to call Federer, who was in charge of this, but then thought about what to do if he made the call himself.
, I don’t know how Federer will laugh.
In the end, Li Yi, who got up early and wanted to make a good impression on the team, had no choice but to transform into a doorman and stood in front of the Crystal Palace training base with the janitor, eyes wide open.
It is said that many years later, after Li Yi became a superstar, the janitor uncle also became a hit and made a lot of money based on the autobiography of Li Yi's own incident. Of course, these
This is also a topic for later, so there is no need to say more.
Fortunately, Li Yi is very lucky. Apart from him, the person who came to the stadium today was not other teammates on the team, but Friedman, who was extremely serious about his work.
Thinking of Li Yi's first day of reporting today, Friedman deliberately arrived at the training base half an hour early.
Who knew that before he entered the base, he saw Li Yi who had arrived earlier than him.
Some people were curious about why Li Yi didn't go in when he came. Instead, he competed with the guard at the gate to see who was more cross-eyed. Friedman walked up and said hello to the guard first, "Hi, David."
Then he turned to Li Yi and asked, "Lee, you're here, why don't you go in? Why are you standing at the door?"
Just as he was standing in front of the coach to sue the guard who stopped him, he thought that stopping him seemed to be the other party's responsibility, but it was really not the other party's intention.
More importantly, when Li Yi turned around, he realized with a twitch in his stomach that the guard who had been staring at him just now had disappeared. At that moment, Li Yi said angrily, "Uh, it's nothing!"
"
"Haha!" However, Friedman has been in society for many years and has a very sharp eye. After a little contact with Li Yi's expression and the past deeds of the doorman David, he immediately made a guess about Li Yi's previous experience.
eight!
Laughing and patting Li Yi on the shoulder, Friedman said with happy tears in his eyes, "Haha, don't worry, Lee, I will explain it later. This kind of thing will never happen again in the future. Go in."
"
"Okay!" The coach did not mention such embarrassing things, so Li Yi was naturally unwilling to discuss them in depth. Friedman's words really touched Li Yi's heart.
Nodding, Li Yi followed Friedman's steps and walked towards the inside of the training base.
It's okay to do something like this once! No matter how many times it happens, Friedman is afraid of giving rise to Li Yi's rebellious heart. After all, Li Yi is a person with a "criminal record."
Therefore, after taking Li Yi back to his office and putting down his things, Friedman kindly acted as a guide and took Li Yi around the training base!
Of course, visiting is not the ultimate goal. Friedman’s ultimate goal is to introduce Li Yi to the staff of the club, so that Li Yi will not cause similar troubles in the future because the employees do not know each other.
dragon.
At 8:40 in the morning, it had been more than an hour since Li Yi went to the club. Li Yi's teammates from today all arrived at the training base one after another.
After changing clothes, I saw Li Yi, who had already changed his jersey and was training in the training ground. Several teammates with a more outgoing personality greeted Li Yi and welcomed Li Yi's arrival.
At 9 o'clock sharp, after the training officially started, Friedman, who was not using him originally, came to the training ground specially today, continued to use his remaining energy, and carefully introduced Li Yi to his Crystal Palace teammates in front of the whole team.
By the way, Li Yi was also introduced to Li Yi's future teammates one by one.
As for how many names Li Yi can remember in such a short period of time and accurately link them to himself? Well, only Li Yi himself knows this kind of thing!
"Pah, pah, pah!" He clapped his hands and focused everyone's attention on himself. Friedman returned to his majestic state and said to Li Yi and others, "I believe everyone already knows each other. Next,
Let me tell you two things! The team made great efforts to recruit Lee from QPR, so naturally he was not asked to take care of the water fountain! However, I also know that if I just take down any of you, you will definitely feel guilty.
Not convinced! So, after resuming training in the morning, if you still have expectations for the main position, please pay attention to me!
If you don’t perform well, then it’s not that I want to take you down, it’s that you are not suitable! So, do you still have any objections?”
"No!" Including Li Yi, when they heard the coach say this, they all shouted back in unison,
